Brayden Musgrove

[Bearfax]

Reminds me a little of John McDonald, a QLD centre who played for Manly between 1969-71. Tall and fast, he played several tests alongside Langlands in the late 60s. If he is anything like McDonald, he's a winner

 

[Mr Manly 007]

It’s not a rumour - Brayden has signed . Manly have Very high expectations
( unbelievably high) of him and is not thought of as a depth signing .

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Agreed! Name one quality centre that has a moustache.......exactly!

OK here's a more current one!

Gees that doesn’t look much of a mo! Looks like the kid just forgot to have a shave!

Musgrove - size, speed, game awareness

Looks good, but I always worry when I see highlights of a player when only friends and family are at the game.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Who makes way for him then?....

No-one, yet.
He'll have to dazzle in pre-season, then play well enough in reserves to be first replacement when we have an injury.
That is the traditional way to get there, and Des is a bit old-fashioned.

 

[The better Robbo]

We have Suli, Parker, Tafua, Garrick, Funa, Elliot, Schuster, Smith, Anderson and now Musgrove.

Just wondering where he sits on the pecking order. But like you said, preseason probably tells the story.

Anderson and Smith would be lucky to be in our top squad

 

[Chip and Chase]

He has his own YouTube video.how can we not sign him

No soundtrack, so still has something to prove.

Even if we arent after Luke id say we'll still be in the market for a hooker/half. Losing api, Elgey and Hodko. We need atleast one more utility option

what about Docker Clay?

Runs tall like Kevin iro

Id upgrade him but still leaves us short. We lose api, hodko and Elgey

 

[southsideeagle]

Id upgrade him but still leaves us short. We lose api, hodko and Elgey

lets just say, "we lose Api". DockAr-Clay looked good this year

 

[HappilyManly]

Id upgrade him but still leaves us short. We lose api, hodko and Elgey

Cade would be a great hooker

Is LG really going ?

Musgrove - size, speed, game awareness

Reminds me of Inglis and Tom Wright, although I consider those 2 different styles.
Great offload ability and long Brett Mullins stride. Lots of promise!!

 

[eagle abroad]

Moves nicely. Good speed. Only downside is the RCG moustache, that has to go. Put it in his contract.

Kevin only ran tall for NZ and not for us

Anderson and Smith would be lucky to be in our top squad

Anderson has really disappointed me. After seeing something special early on he has really gone off the boil. You are right. He'll be lucky to make the cut off, unless he really starts to impress in the preseason.

 

[ManlyTragic]

Whatever happened to that guy Abbas Miski?

Yeah definitely has the skills, could be an Addo carr type but seems to really lack any strength and gets rag dolled even in NSW cup. Unfortunate but I don't think we will see him in the NRL.

As for Miski I personally do not think he is worth a spot in our top 30. Happy to keep him at Blacktown and use him if we have a mass of injuries again but I don't see him being a regular 1st grader either.
